Norwich boss Alex Neil hopes to end the Canaries' terrible opening-day run

6. This week’s… potential Premier League target

SCOTT HOGAN (Brentford): Another striker who has risen from non-league.

His time at Griffin Park has been blighted by injuries, but he returned after an 18-month absence in blistering form at the end of last season, plundering SEVEN goals in his last four games.

Prem scouts will be watching and with the Bees’ fixture at Huddersfield producing an average of 5.3 goals a game for the last seven matches, observers could well see what all the fuss is about over the hotshot.

7. This week’s… game of the weekend

NOTTINGHAM FOREST v BURTON: There are so many to plumb for, with multiple sub-plots from across the leagues.

But Albion’s first ever second-tier game in their 66-year history, against neighbours Forest where boss Nigel Clough made 324 appearances across two spells and scoring 102 goals, is the one that captures my eye.

I’ll be there - and I think Clough’s men have a real chance of an upset, too!

PRESTON (away to Reading): SIMON GRAYSON steered North End to safety with ease last year and I fancy the ex-Leeds chief to repeat the feat this year.

Jaap Stam may be a legendary player but we are yet to find out what he is like as a manager so for that reason, I won’t be surprised if canny Grayson gets the better of the Dutchman at the Madejski this weekend.
